Definitions

  • the invention relates to a back flow preventer in sloping pipes, such as waste water and surface water pipes, i.e. a device preventing back flow of water in for instance a waste pipe, comprising a well vat having an inlet and an outlet which are connected to the pipe.
  • waste water can rise in the sewerage of buildings connected to the pipe and flooding of the basements will take place. Water can also penetrate into the draining system of the foundation of the buildings and cause an overflow of the foundation followed by moisture and mould damages in the buildings.
  • back flow preventers which close automatically if water flows in a direction reverse to the normal direction.
  • the high water door is mentioned which is mounted at overflows to prevent a backflow of water in the pipe during high water. Quite easily litter or sludge keeps the door open allowing a back flow of water through the door.
  • a regular lubrication and maintenace is required.
  • the non-return valve having a flap, which is easily plugged by sludge and paper when there is a low flow of water.
  • back flow preventers which utilize floating bodies.
  • An object of the invention is to eliminate the drawbacks of the present backflow preventers mentioned above and thus to provide a backflow preventer functioning satisfactorily without extensive maintenance and attandance also when litter and sludge occur in the water passing through the backflow preventer.
  • the backflow preventer according to FIGS 1-6 comprises a sump formed as a cylindrical reservoir 10 provided with a riser 11 arranged as an inspection piece.
  • the reservoir will be connected to a waste water or surface water pipe through the sockets resulting in a normal flow of water in the direction of the arrows according to FIG 1.
  • a floating tube 16 comprising a tube 17, which is not required to have floating properties and a floating body 18 made for instance of cellular plastics arranged to enclose the tube 17, the floating tube 16 in one end being connected to the inlet socket 14 through a flexible piece of hose 19, for instance made of rubber, making said end of the floating tube anchored for practically universal pivotal motion while the other end of the floating tube opens into the reservoir.
  • the opening end of the tube 17 is cut off to be inclined at an acute angle to the bottom of the tube.
  • the floating tube 16 extends along the bottom of the reservoir according to FIGS 1 and 2, and the opening end thereof is in such case received in a groove 20 connected to the outlet socket 15 to bring the opening end into axial alignment with the socket 15.
  • a plate 22 coated on the underside with an elastic sealing material, for instance rubber, is suspended within the riser 11 by means of a cross bar 21, the plate 22 being suspended in a centre position of the cross bar and being allowed a limited pivoting movement from the horizontal position.
  • an elastic sealing material for instance rubber
  • the floating tube 16 will eventually reach the position shown in FIGS 5 and 6 where the opening end of the floating tube is pressed against the underside of the plate 22 thereby closing the opening end.
  • the universal joint formed by the tube 19 allows that the floating tube is given a pivoting movement also in the transversal direction ⁇ the top side of the floating body 18 is cylindrically curved about the edge between the reservoir and the riser to be centred by the engagement of the curved surface to said edge.
  • the reservoir 10 may, of course, have another cross section than a circular and the inlet socket and the outlet socket are not required to be arranged opposite each other. Neither are they required to be arranged adjacent to the bottom. If they are arranged at a distance above the bottom supporting means may be arranged for the floating tube keeping it essentially horizontal in the normal position.
  • the tube 17 may have a floating capacity of its own, a specific floating body thereby possibly being avoided, and the joint formed by the hose 19 can be replaced by another type of a turning joint for instance a ball joint.
  • the disclosed embodiment is advantageous because there are no moving parts rusting or being obstructed.
  • the plate 22 is well protected from litter and sludge when positioned in the riser 11, from that position also being easily inspected and cleaned.
  • the floating tube 16 is provided with a cover 23 pivotally mounted on the tube 17 at the upper edge of the opening end at 24.
  • the cover could be provided with sealing means so as to engage the opening edge of the tube in a sealing manner.
  • a fork 25 having a swivel roller 26 is provided on the cap. In the normal position according to FIG 7 the roller engages the downstream end wall 13 of the reservoir keeping the cap in an open position and allowing water to flow unrestrictedly from the inlet socket 14 through the floating tube 16 to the outlet socket 15 as indicated by the arrows of FIG 7.
  • the cap 23 can be controlled in other ways than shown in FIGS 7 and 8, for instance by means of a rope anchoring device or by means of fixed guideways in the reservoir, the cap preferably being biased to opened or closed position by means of a spring.
  • FIGS 7 and 8 requires less space than the embodiment of FIGS 1-6 and is intended especially for rather thin lines.
